It's not normal/humanterion to let the visitors tour this big museum without supply drinking water posts and force them to buy something in the cafeteria.

This tour of the Prado Museum will show you the best highlights of the museum. Your guided tour of the Prado Museum begins at the designated meeting point where you will meet your licensed guide. Your tour guide will then lead you past the long ticket lines, through a brief security check, and then into the museum.

In the company of a guide, you will breeze through the galleries as your guide shows you the classics, giving you all the information you'll need to make this visit memorable. Some of the popular works of art include "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by Hyeronimus Bosch, "The Descent from the Cross" by Roger van der Weyden, "Las Meninas" by Diego Velazquez, Goya's "Maja" series, "Emperor Carlos V on Horseback" by Titian, "David Victorious over Goliath" by Caravaggio and many more.

You will then make your way to the magnificent El Retiro, one of the world’s most famous parks and one of Madrid’s top attractions. Its rich flora and fauna make it quite a marvelous sight that deserves a visit. Although the park is massive, you will still get to see all of El Retiro´s jewels and hidden gems on this tour. Your guide will lead you on a route through the best-known sites of El Retiro such as the Crystal Palace, the Gate of Philip IV, and the Royal Observatory, as well as to a few places that don’t feature in all the guidebooks. Your tour shall end at the park giving you the opportunity to relax at the park for the rest of the day if you choose to.
